What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? (lemmy.world)

This question popped into my head when I was playing Void Stranger. I just got done with the game and will probably never play it again despite not finishing it. The game is genuinely amazing but it just gets so demanding as you progress through it. I ended up watching the second half of the game on YouTube.

What is your favorite game that you feel is really cool and special but you never felt the pull of actually finishing it, and why?

Half-life 2 has probably been installed on every PC I've owed over the past 20 years but I've never finished it. On the positive side I've managed to avoid spoilers for this long so what's another 20...

You should get on that. I hear the sequel is coming any time now.

Wow. Where do you leave off? It’s not a super long game so I’m a little surprised… But there’s definitely parts you might lose interest in.

I can't speak for the parent, but I don't remember ever getting past Nova Prospekt. Not because I didn't want to, it's just that every time I've started playing I get distracted right around that part. But I have a serious problem of not being able to finish games, I get distracted by other games far too easily.

Well, just play this before Hl3 comes out.

That's the goal. Better get a move on...

I found it to be a pretty short game, maybe you just did not enjoy playing it?

I never started episode 2. I knew that was the end and just... never played it to keep things non definitive
